  • Contents Page for Jenny Cassie's Crown Entities Act Seminars
    4. CAPACITY AND POWERS OF CROWN ENTITIES Jenny Cassie, Barrister Introduction This chapter discusses the provisions of the Crown Entities Act which relate to the capacity and exercise of powers of statutory entities and, to a more limited degree, Crown entity companies and Crown entity subsidiaries. The commentary covers the generic model as covered by the Act and does not, for example, cover the exercise of powers by statutory officers whose powers must be exercised independently of an entity.72 Legal status Statutory entities, Crown entity companies and Crown entity subsidiaries are all bodies corporate and are therefore legal entities which exist separately from their members, office holders, employees and, importantly, the Crown.73 This separation is illustrated most acutely by the position of statutory entities that are corporations sole. A single person, for example, the Privacy Commissioner, may have corporate status by virtue of being declared a corporation sole. This enables an artificial line to be drawn between the person as an individual and the office as a legal person. Crown entity status contrasts with Departments, which are legally part of the Crown. Departments, having no separate legal status, can be established and disestablished by the Government by executive action. By contrast, a “statutory entity” can only be established or disestablished by legislation. Setting up Crown entity companies requires registration of a company with Ministers as shareholders.74 Capacity of statutory entities “Capacity” describes the legal ability or qualification of an entity to do something. The general rule regarding the capacity of corporations is that:75 The powers of a corporation created by statute are limited and circumscribed by the statutes which regulate it and extend no further than is expressly stated therein, or is necessarily and properly required for carrying into effect the purposes of its incorporation, or may be fairly regarded as incidental to, or consequential on, those things which the legislature has authorised.

  • Crown Entities
    Crown Entities: Categories and Principles A report for the State Services Commission 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 This report has been prepared by McKinlay Douglas Limited (“MDL”) for the State Services Commission (“the SSC”) as part of its Whole of Government Perspective Series. 1.2 The brief for the report was in two parts: ∗ Identification of categories and types of Crown entities and identification of and placement within categories of all Crown entities established to date. This should include information on the Crown entities whose design conforms with the type/categories and those that include aspects of design that are different in some way. ∗ The principles for establishing a Crown entity. In other words what is the thinking that underpinned decisions on whether an agency would be a Crown entity, department or indeed some other body. To what extent is there consistency in the applications of these principles to the design of Crown entities. 1.3 As work on this paper proceeded, MDL arrived at the view that, if anything was to be categorised, it should be the interests of the Crown rather than Crown entities as such. The early part of this paper compares the implications, for the Crown, of categorising entities as opposed to categorising Crown interests and draws out the arguments in favour the latter approach. This includes a discussion of what are seen to be key interests of the Crown including: ∗ Ownership as a residual claimant interest ∗ Ownership as a means of pursuing other policy goals (for example retaining critical mass in certain activities) ∗ Purchase interest.

  • Television New Zealand Bill-185-1
    Television New Zealand Bill Government Bill Explanatory note General policy statement The public broadcasting Charter for Television New Zealand (TVNZ) has been approved by the Government and will be imple- mented from 1 July 2002. The Charter establishes the standard the Government wishes to reach in public broadcasting on television. TVNZ's commitment to public broadcasting objectives is an impor- tant means of achieving the Government' s broadcasting objectives because of TVNZ' s important position in the broadcasting market. TVNZ's Charter provides a clear focus for its public broadcasting objectives and places obligations on it that set it apart from other national channels. TVNZ is currently a State-owned enterprise (SOE), with the pri- mary objective of acting as a successful business. Under the SOE model, TVNZ may implement its Charter only to a degree that is consistent with that objective. This Bill provides for a more appro- priate organisational form to allow TVNZ to focus on its Charter. TVNZ will become a Crown-owned company, which will allow it to better deliver both Charter and commercial objectives. Because TVNZ will continue to have commercial objectives, the company form remains appropriate. In addition to its television business, TVNZ is also involved in the transmission business, which includes domestic and international linking and transmission facilities and services for the television and radio broadcasting and narrowcasting industries. This part of the business does not have a role in implementing the Charter. This Bill allows for the transmission business to continue with its current objective of acting as a successful business. 185-1 2 Television New Zealand Explanatory note As the television business and the transmission business operate in different industries and will have different objectives, it is important that they are operationally separate with separate governance.
